About these terms
These terms apply to your use of the DSIT website and provide a general framework for our services. Specific projects are governed by a written quotation or service agreement, which prevails if there is any conflict.
Services
DSIT provides software development, digital platforms, data analytics, educational technology, and related consulting. Descriptions on this website are indicative; final scope, deliverables, and timelines are defined in the applicable agreement.
Quotations and acceptance
Quotations are valid for the period stated (or 30 days if unspecified). A binding engagement begins when you accept a quotation in writing and any agreed deposit is received.
Fees and payment
Fees, payment schedules, and taxes are set out in the service agreement. Unless otherwise agreed, invoices are payable within the stated terms. Late payment may suspend delivery. Prices may change for future work with prior notice; agreed project fees remain fixed unless scope changes.
Client responsibilities
You agree to provide timely access to information, stakeholders, content, and approvals required for delivery. Delays in client input may affect timelines.
Intellectual property
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, work product created specifically for you under a paid engagement transfers to you upon full payment. DSIT retains ownership of pre-existing tools, libraries, frameworks, and know-how. Portfolio use of anonymised or publicly visible work may occur unless you request otherwise in writing.
Confidentiality
Each party will treat the other’s confidential information with reasonable care and use it only for performing the engagement, except where disclosure is required by law.
Warranties and support
We warrant that services will be performed with reasonable skill and care. Defects attributable to our work reported within the agreed warranty or maintenance period will be remedied at no additional charge. Support beyond that period may be covered by a maintenance retainer.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, DSIT’s total liability arising from an engagement is limited to the fees paid for the services giving rise to the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential loss, including lost profits or data, except where liability cannot be excluded by law.
Website use
Content on this website is provided for general information. We may update or remove content without notice. You may not misuse the site, attempt unauthorised access, or use automated means to scrape content without permission.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Disputes will first be addressed in good faith negotiation.
